Seething mass of testosterone and Google co-founder Sergey Brin has stated that smartphones are emasculating.

Speaking at the Technology, Education and Design TED conference series on the subject of Google Glasses and the future of Google, Brin let drop that he finds the fastest growing technology of the past decade to be "emasculating".
